Globalinc.An Atlas of the Multinational Corporation

By Medard Gabel, founder and CEO of BigPicture Consulting. How
have companies dealt with the phenomenon of globalization? How can
your company fit in? This stunning atlas looks at when and
where
multinationals have entered the global marketplace.

Strategic planning as if your company's survival depended on it—because
it does.

If you had played the FutureGame
last year, you would be much better prepared for the crisis today. The FutureGame
is where you learn today how to avoid tomorrow's crises by locating its
opportunities; where what might be gets transformed into what you want it
to be, and where what you want gets planned in a way that brings it about.

The FutureGame shows you the way to not just react to the volatility of
today's market, financial systems, and credit crunch. It explores proactively
and systematically how your company or organization can find and develop
the opportunities in the current situation—how you can transform emergency
into emergence.

How we see the world:“The
future is already here. It just hasn't been distributed yet.”

Tactical thinking is reacting to change.

Strategic thinking is managing change.

BigPicture thinking is creating change for desired results.

The current rate
of change is unprecedented—and getting faster. Options disappear almost
as fast as new ones emerge.
In the time it took you to read this, 45,000 international phone calls were
made, 16 million e-mails sent, and a million more transistors have been
added to the world.

The
FutureGame is a powerful tool that provides perspective
and strategic insight that will move your organization
into the future you want. Learn how to harness change, instead of
reacting to it. Find out how The
FutureGame works— and why it it so useful and
fun. More >>
"The FutureGame was extremely useful in helping us to develop our strategic
plan! . . . we will definitely use the FutureGame again."

“Early planning is far more effective than managing the consequences
of a breakdown . . . In other words, strengthening the levees in New Orleans
costs much, much less than rebuilding the city.”
